it's a b-side to the "a perfect day elise" singles.  i can rip it for you and upload it to yousendit if you'd like.  it's really a beautiful song.  :)

isabelle:
toast - very good answer. I must say, at first I thought 'toast' referred to your humor, which I took to be dry! And very good song again.

Julie - why didn't I think of this one? I know this song!

And little darlin - I'll have to address you in this very intimate way if you prefer to keep your anonymity too - YES, I'd love to be able to hear this song. But I am still a bit dumb with computers, although I'm getting better, so you'll have to tell me what I have to do (and what 'yousendit' is, and how to get there... you get the picture  :P) Thank you!  :-*

If anyone else wants it, let me know.

Toast:
Here I am again with another John Denver Song

I think this song would be perfect if Ennis (I would ride along with him)
if Ennis were to take Jack Twist's ashes to the top of Brokeback.
It could be read as part of the ceremony or sitting at the fire drinking whiskey
or it would make a perfect soundtrack for our slideshow after we got back to earth.

This song appears on seven albums,
and was first released as the title song on Windsong (that is the best version)


John Denver - Windsong

The wind is the whisper of our mother the earth
The wind is the hand of our father the sky
The wind watches over our struggles and pleasures
The wind is the goddess who first learned to fly

The wind is the bearer of bad and good tidings
The weaver of darkness, the bringer of dawn
The wind gives the rain, then builds us a rainbow
The wind is the singer who sang the first song

The wind is a twister of anger and warning
The wind brings the fragrance of freshly mown hay
The wind is a racer, a wild stallion running
The sweet taste of love on a slow summer’s day

The wind knows the songs of the cities and canyons
The thunder of mountains, the roar of the sea
The wind is the taker and giver of mornings
The wind is the symbol of all that is free

So welcome the wind and the wisdom she offers
Follow her summons when she calls again
In your heart and your spirit let the breezes surround you
Lift up your voice then and sing with the wind



Rest in Peace Jack Nasty, we love you.

This one makes me cry, everytime.
I like all this crying.

Toast - we'll have to find ourselves a Mountain named Brokeback, and hold a ceremony there, in honour of all those we love/have loved.
I LOVE that this song refers to the wind as SHE - rather unexpected, but great.
